We pre-booked our snorkelling trip online before we arrived and paid USD cash. They were very helpful and quick to respond via email to any questions. Their website is very professional compared to other companies I was researching. It is about a 4 hour tour and we had 4 snorkelling stops where we saw SO much stuff. We saw Manta... More

My wife can't swim and Simon spent the entire six... More

Our guide for the day was Simon and he picked us up directly from the Four Seasons dock which was where we were staying.

If ever you get to Bora Bora do not miss the beauty of the lagoon. Christophe runs a class tour with a beautiful boat and knowledgeable guide. We saw eel, stingray and manta ray plus tons of fish and coral. Highly recommend.

Christophe took my husband and I snorkelling. Since I was new to snorkelling, it was great to have some hands on guide who could show me how to wear the snorkel mask and how to snorkel properly. We saw manta rays, moray eels, sting rays, eagle rays and so many other fish. We had a wonderful time.

We were guided to Christophe and PUR snorkeling, by our hotel's activities desk and by Tripadvisor, so we couldn't wait to go out with him! We were very happy that we did! Christophe is very knowledgeable about the lagoon, and very responsible to it's inhabitants -- we visited some lovely sights and got to swim with the Manta Rays, which... More

Pure Snorkeling with Reef Discovery was truly the highlight of our incredible trip! If you are in Bora Bora and can only do one excursion... do this one! From swimming with manta rays, eagle rays, and sting rays to drift diving to swimming through coral gardens, it was truly an amazing experience. We toured the whole lagoon on the boat... More

Thierry is an amazing guide and very knowledgeable about everything you will see. If you take the private tour he will take you to places no one else will and you will see the most beautiful corals and fish. He asked us what we wanted to see and fit to our comfort level. He also helped fix my snorkel that... More

I have read so many comments before deciding to go with Reef Discovery. As i had an accident in the water when i was a child, i am afraid to swim in deep water. All the good comments on tripadvisor and the wish of my boyfriend to join, convinced me to book with Christophe. The tour started this morning. Christophe... More
